The Sketchbook Project

Attention class!

This is a great project  you should all be a part of.  I am working on getting education rates for Chester students.

http://www.arthousecoop.com/projects/sketchbookproject

Thousands of sketchbooks will be exhibited at galleries and museums as they make their way on tour across the country.

After the tour, all sketchbooks will enter into the permanent collection of The Brooklyn Art Library, where they will be barcoded and available for the public to view.

Anyone – from anywhere in the world – can be a part of the project. To participate and have us send you a sketchbook that will go on tour, start by choosing a theme to the right.
